The Inwood Little League provides, for more than 400 kids on 31 teams from ages 7 to 18,
the opportunity to learn and have fun playing the great game of baseball. The League
serves children who live in upper Manhattan and the Bronx.
Read about our history..
Our home fields are in Inwood Hill Park. Our older players (13 and up) play some inter-league
with teams from other leagues in district 23 (Manhattan and West Bronx).
In July, our all-star teams participate in the international Little League tournament. Our
teams are often district champions and our older players have reached the State semifinals
numerous times.
We have a separate summer league in which our teams sometimes travel to play in places like
New Jersey, Westchester, Connecticut and Brooklyn.
We also have a separate instructional indoor winter program where a limited number of our
younger players learn and practice baseball in a local school gym on Saturdays from October
to February.
Inwood Little League is the oldest Little League in New York City. It was founded in 1950.
Thousands of kids have gone through our league learning baseball and having fun. Some have
gone on to play professionally. Our most famous player is basketball great,
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.
The bulk of our income is from registration fees. Additional money comes from sponsors,
grants and fund-raising events.
All our managers, coaches and league officials are volunteers.
